Errant33:
I have the sansa e200 series and i have a few questions regarding the UI and customization of rockbox software

-Can i disable the Delete Feature (I use the player at party's and this could be potentially dangerous)
- Is their anyway to Change the Fonts used for Main menus and theme displays if not can someone point me in the correct direction coding wise
- Is their a way to customize the themes for Recording and FM station through .wps
- Is their a way to change fonts with in the same theme so it can display multiple fonts with in one screen.
- What files contain the Information regarding Main menus etc so I can customize them
- Also what program do you guys use for coding, I am use to  Visual basic only because my college forced me to use it for the past 4 years.

My basic goals are to make the player a little more restricted for those who have multiple people on their players and don't want to risk them touching things they should not. I am thinking along the lines of being able to hide menus and possibly password lock them.

I have only had rockbox for 3 days now and my second day i wrote my own theme that i feel is above par on most of them, this gives you a idea of were my skills in coding are. As long as i have code to modify i usally can figure out what does what and optimize/ change it to do what i want so basically i am looking for someone to help point me in the right direction and get involved in the project.


You guys rock fyi just wanted to say thanks for the work you put into this project and i hope i can contribute something productive to it, sorry if some of these questions are in the wrong forum

That's why there's a party mode.

Yes, just change the font from the settings menu.

Not currently.

Not without using a custom build.

root_menu.c

Text editor of choice - doesn't matter which one, so long as (if you're on windows) you remember to change the file to unix line endings.

Again - party mode locks the player down quite nicely.

There's no way to disable the delete feature, but you might find the party mode useful:  http://download.rockbox.org/manual/rockbox-sansae200/rockbox-buildch7.html#x10-1030007.1

Yes.  First, make sure you download the fonts pack on the "extras" page (see the link in the navigation panel on the left).  Then simply browse and select the font you'd like:  http://download.rockbox.org/manual/rockbox-sansae200/rockbox-buildch7.html#x10-1070007.5

No

I believe that there is an unofficial patch to accomplish this, but it's not a feature that is currently officially supported.

I worded my question wrong sorry i mean have a Main menu font different from the theme itself



And thanks for the quick response guys i am gonna get started playing with the code later today

No, the menu and the WPS currently use the same font.
